Performance

Under the hood, Hackensack drivers can decide between the Highlander and the Telluride's impressive powertrains. The Telluride features a 3.8-liter V6 engine, producing a healthy 291 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque. The Toyota Highlander provides even more power from a 3.5-liter V6 engine. This engine produces 295 horsepower and 263 pound-feet of torque, just edging out the Telluride in terms of performance.

If you're seeking an eco-friendly SUV, only the Toyota Highlander is offered with a hybrid powertrain. These models offer up to 36 mpg combined with front-wheel drive and 35 mpg with all-wheel drive. The Kia Telluride offers no such option for Paramus drivers.

Safety Features

The Toyota Highlander offers an impressive suite of safety features. Toyota's Safety Sense 2.5+ package features a pre-collision system with pedestrian detection. This is a system with forward collision warnings, pedestrian detection, and automatic emergency braking. This system will help you avoid low-speed accidents time after time.

The Highlander also includes full-speed dynamic radar cruise control. This adaptive cruise control system is perfect for extended highway journeys. Also included in this package is a lane-departure warning system with lane-keeping assistance. The Toyota Highlander is an IIHS "Top Safety Pick+", which is the institute's highest designation for safety. The Kia Telluride offers a similarly impressive safety suite, but only garnered an IIHS "Top Safety Pick" rating, which is the second-highest designation for safety. Why settle for second best?

Interior and Tech

Drivers will love the interior of the Toyota Highlander and the Kia Telluride. Both vehicles feature an eight-inch touchscreen infotainment interface with the base model. Upper trim levels of the Toyota Highlander offer up a 12.3-inch widescreen display, while the Kia Telluride tops out at a 10.2-inch display. A wireless charging pad is available starting with the XLE trim in the Toyota Highlander. This bleeding-edge tech feature is only offered with the highest trim levels of the Kia Telluride.

The Toyota Highlander Platinum offers a standard head-up display, presenting vital driving information on your windshield. This feature is only available as part of an optional package with the Kia Telluride. Similarly, the Toyota Highlander features triple-zone automatic climate control as standard with the vehicle. This essential feature for a three-row SUV is only included with the upper EX and SX trims, so your passengers will have to go without during the summer months in Fort Lee, NJ.

Storage space is crucial for a vehicle of this size. Behind the second row, drivers will find 48.4 cubic feet of space in the Toyota Highlander. The Kia Telluride only offers 46 cubic feet. Both vehicles offer a hands-free liftgate for easy access to the rear storage area.
